Lucky Leprechaun – Character Insight
When I think of leprechauns, I think of little old men who are mean and nasty. think of them as being full of anger. I think of them as the type that would steal candy from a child and have no regrets about what they have done.
I wanted to create a leprechaun that was fun and happy. I created Lucky Leprechaun. Lucky Leprechaun spreads his happiness throughout Storyland. He is especially happy on St. Patrick’s Day.
We have so much sadness and violence in this world. We do need constant reminders that happiness does exist. Along with fun and happiness, Lucky Leprechaun also spreads good luck. Some people don’t believe in good or bad luck but I have had much too little of one and way too much of the other in my lifetime to know good and bad luck does exist. I can’t change my good or bad luck in real life but in Storyland, I can have Lucky Leprechaun give out as much good luck as he can.
